Emily Virgin criticizes states failure to accept federal health care aid CapitolBeatOK Staff Report OKLAHOMA CITY – A legislative Democrat contends the state government’s failure to accept federal aid for health care programs contributes to the overall poor health of Oklahomans, and is proving costly because uninsured Oklahomans seek uncompensated medical care in hospital emergency rooms. “Everyone benefits when more people receive health care services outside a hospital,” said Rep. Emily Virgin, D-Norman. “When individuals are able to access a primary-care physician and receive regular preventive medicine, everyone’s costs decrease.”
